    What’s there to expound? I have a significant amount of money in stocks. My portfolio has decreased in value by about 25% since this pandemic hit. End of story.

    Same here. I have a few friends that work for either Alaska or Delta, only 3 of 5 have seen a reduction in their hours.

    I have a relative who is a pilot, and the only reason why he's still able to fly is because of his seniority. But the rest of the crews are hosed.

    I feel bad for most who are now not working. We need to place Trump in that category this November along with McConnell.

    We get our gas at the Tigard Costco. We pay $2.74, with the 3% discount, this becomes a shade over $2.65 per gallon. We're paying more than $1.06 per gallon more than you. Where do you live, Saudi Arabia?

    $2.74?? Damn, Bay Area there would be a line!

    Fortunately I rarely drive these days.

    I've always thought you were from Georgia, but I guess I had forgotten for sure.
